The system can include a content search manager service for generating the discovered content based on search criteria and a semantic analysis service for generating the analyzed content. The system can also include a data store for storing the generated identity correlation summaries and a notification service for providing a notification based on the generated identity correlation summaries. ## Claims ### Claim 1 An identity analysis and correlation service system, comprising: a summary manager service operable to generate a plurality of identity correlation summaries pertaining to a persona, wherein the generated plurality of identity correlation summaries are based at least in part on discovered content corresponding to the persona and analyzed content corresponding to the discovered content; and a data store operable to store the generated plurality of identity correlation summaries. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The identity analysis and correlation service system of claim 1, further comprising a semantic analysis service operable to generate the analyzed content. ### Claim 3 (depends on 2) The identity analysis and correlation service system of claim 2, wherein the semantic analysis service is operable to generate the analyzed content based at least in part on a plurality of semantic abstracts, wherein the plurality of semantic abstracts are based at least in part on the discovered content and at least one of persona content corresponding to the persona and community content corresponding to the persona. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The identity analysis and correlation service system of claim 1, further comprising at least one identity service operable to generate the persona. ### Claim 5 (depends on 1) The identity analysis and correlation service system of claim 1, further comprising a content search manager service operable to generate the discovered content based at least in part on a plurality of search criteria. ### Claim 6 (depends on 5) The identity analysis and correlation service system of claim 5, wherein the content search manager service is operable to generate the discovered content via a plurality of interactions with a plurality of search engines using at least some of the plurality of search criteria. ### Claim 7 (depends on 5) The identity analysis and correlation service system of claim 5, wherein the plurality of search criteria is developed by a user via a user interface. ### Claim 8 (depends on 1) The identity analysis and correlation service system of claim 1, further comprising a dashboard utility operable to graphically display information pertaining to at least some of the generated identity correlation summaries. ### Claim 9 (depends on 3) The identity analysis and correlation service system of claim 3, wherein the community content comprises information pertaining to the persona's involvement with an online community. ### Claim 10 (depends on 1) The identity analysis and correlation service system of claim 1, further comprising a notification service operable to provide a notification based on the generated plurality of identity correlation summaries. ### Claim 11 (depends on 10) The identity analysis and correlation service system of claim 10, wherein the notification comprises an advisory of a possible correlation between the persona and the discovered content. ### Claim 12 A computer-implemented method, comprising: searching content on a network based on a plurality of search criteria and storing the results as discovered content; performing a semantic analysis on at least part of the discovered content; based at least in part on results of the semantic analysis, generating a plurality of summaries indicating a correlation between the discovered content and at least one persona; and displaying information pertaining to the plurality of summaries. ### Claim 13 (depends on 12) The computer-implemented method of claim 12, wherein performing the semantic analysis comprises creating at least one semantic abstract corresponding to the discovered content. ### Claim 14 (depends on 12) The computer-implemented method of claim 12, wherein generating the plurality of summaries is also based at least in part on the discovered content. ### Claim 15 (depends on 12) The computer-implemented method of claim 12, wherein generating the plurality of summaries is also based at least in part on information pertaining to the persona. ### Claim 16 (depends on 12) The computer-implemented method of claim 12, further comprising sending a notification to a user of the at least one persona, wherein the notification provides information pertaining to the indicated correlation between the discovered content and at least one persona. ### Claim 17 (depends on 16) The computer-implemented method of claim 16, further comprising receiving as input from the user at least one actionable item pertaining to the notification. ### Claim 18 An identity analysis and correlation system, comprising: a content search module operable to determine discovered content for at least one persona by searching at least one of public content and private content based at least in part on a plurality of search criteria; a semantic analysis module operable to generate analyzed content for the at least one persona based at least in part on the discovered content; a summary generation module operable to generate a plurality of summaries for the at least one persona based at least in part on the analyzed content; and a dashboard utility operable to display information pertaining to at least some of the plurality of summaries. ### Claim 19 (depends on 18) The identity analysis and correlation system of claim 18, further comprising a persona generation module operable to generate the at least one persona for a user. ### Claim 20 (depends on 18) The identity analysis and correlation system of claim 18, further comprising a notification module operable to alert a user to a potential correlation between the at least one persona and the discovered content.
